Member Function Documentation

◆ createForeignTitle()

NaiveForeignTitleFactory::createForeignTitle ( $title,
$ns = null )

Creates a ForeignTitle object based on the page title, and optionally the namespace ID, of a page on a foreign wiki.

These values could be, for example, the <title> and <ns> attributes found in an XML dump.

Although exported XML dumps have contained a map of namespace IDs to names since MW 1.5, the importer used to completely ignore the <siteinfo> tag before MW 1.25. It is therefore possible that custom XML dumps (i.e. not generated by Special:Export) have been created without this metadata. As a result, this code falls back to using namespace data for the local wiki (similar to buggy pre-1.25 behaviour) if $ns is not supplied.

Parameters
string$titleThe page title
int | null$nsThe namespace ID, or null if this data is not available
Returns
ForeignTitle

Implements ForeignTitleFactory.
